The article is at http://www.vk1od.net/G5RV/ . Owen, that's the best G5RV article I've ever seen. When anyone has questions on the G5RV, I'm going to point them to that article. However, it does contain an error. You say: " ... it ... does not have acceptable feed performance on any WARC bands" Yet your own SWR data shows a low SWR point at 25 MHz. The G5RV actually has a lower SWR on the coax on 24.95 MHz than it does on 21.3 MHz according to EZNEC. Also, someone is preparing an article showing how length selection of the "matching section" using relays can transform the G5RV into a truly all-HF-band antenna requiring no tuner. After that article is published, it would be nice if you included that information in your article. -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp |
